Masala City in Chichester

An actual experience! Asked the Maitre D’ to choose our menu, what followed were a fabulous spread of hand-picked delights that filled our bellies and put smiles on all our faces. Thank you Masala City!!

Fantastic food as always! Mo the waiter was extremely helpful and overall top class service. Would 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for great food.

Food came really quickly and the staff were friendly and very attentive. Food portions were a decent size. Would happily visit again.

Lots of variety of dishes on the menu to choice from. Food was delicious and Mo was a great host and very attentive. All staff were very helpful.

Having enjoyed many great Indian meals the Masala City is there with the best I’ve ever had … great ambiance, superb staff and amazing food. If you’re ever in Chichester the Masala City is the place to go for amazing food and first class and friendly service, 5* without a doubt

Wonderful food and fantastic service. Friendly staff and enjoyed our first meal at Masala city. Best restaurant indian food I’ve had, special thanks to Ali who made the experience 10 out of 10 all round.

Excellent from starter to main, really delicious flavours. Mo looked after us brilliantly, many thanks.,..................... .. ..

Excellent food, service and ambience could not fault it, would throughly recommend. Great selection of curry’s all beautifully presented

Place, more expensive than your average London Indian restaurant, was rammed on a Monday evening. Food tasty. But beware…a chutney tray to accompany papadoms is £3.50 (plus service) - they don’t tell you this. Also boiled rice portion is a fiver (again, plus service). A main course average price is £15 plus.

Popped in while visiting Chichester, fantastic food, definitely not short on portions with enough to take home and enjoy again later. Also top tier service from Jess, always serving with a smile and a joke with peak professionalism. Also Raj was there

This is my absolute favourite dining establishment, after having recently moved I haven’t been able to eat another Indian. Raj and the kitchen team always tantalise my tastebuds, & Jess is the best who serves with no stress. All in all, a fabulous treat of a night. Love it!!

You will never find a better Indian ever !!! Mo was fantastic !! Very attentive and the food…… OMG !!!!! The best Indian I’ve ever eaten !!!

Outstanding food and great service especially by Ali. Lots of choice of the menu. Will be returning for sure in the future.

Sublime. Non bias review as usual - you can’t get much better than this place to be honest. I have been fortunate enough to eat and many curry houses across the uk and this one is in my top 5. Everything was wonderful. Super clean, top service, very nice interior, subtle but great music, and the food was fresh and beautiful. It all started well with the poppadoms, you know when they’re that fresh and the condiments are delicious you’re in for a good meal. Round of applause to the ladies and gents running the place and cooking. Top marks.

An absolutely fabulous Indian restaurant where the food is quite simply delicious. The waiters and waitresses were the most attentive, polite and helpful staff I’ve ever come across and like I said, the food is out of this world.

Back again....don't know why my review was not put up but i will try again.... Masala city is amazing....we love it...the food is great and its always busy. it can get hot in there when it's busy but it's a small price to pay for the best of the best. The service is excellent ....We were looked after by a mum and daughter team Alana and Alana .... just go and try it.....they win all the awards so that says it all.

Very good service and very nice food 100% recommend Staff are very nice and helpful and food is very nice and good value for money

Fantastic place been coming here for nearly a decade and the food is very consistent and the staff are very friendly and efficient Thanks Jay Alena and Ali

Fabulous meal as always. So much food and so delicious 😋. We were served by Jess and she was friemdly and accommodating, nothing was too much trouble. When we arrived there was a handful of tables being used, when we left every table was occupied. Left with take out boxes. Perfect birthday celebration. Thank you !

We came here to celebrate son's birthday with family and friens. As always 10/10 for food, service and experience. Lovely Evening.

Unrivalled service in the south Excellent food Beautiful ambience I went for my birthday 🥳 With some good friends , none of us have been before! We were greeted very quickly shown to our table Given plenty of time to choose with very good help information about the style of food 🥘 The mixed starter was excellent The salad garnish was superb….. we all had something different and all meals were delicious I will Definitely return ….

The food was amazing as always! Mo was my server and he was great. He noticed when I needed refills and such but didn’t hover. I will definitely return.

Had lamb Almashriki, on menu as Medium, no heat at all, could not taste ginger or garlic. Bombay Aloo just greasy potato again no heat. Manager indifferent when we told him. Waiter service excellent considering how busy they were. Shame as used to be our favourite Indian restaurant in Chichester

Service fantastic. Food fantastic. Thank you chef for a great experience. Having been to many Indian restaurants in different countries, this is one of the best.

Excellent food and service jess was very good she recommended different dishes which we had a d it was a very good choice mo was very attentive when we wanted drinks great night definitely be back big thank you to all at masala City

This is my second visit and both times have been superb, fantastic food, great atmosphere, lovely, attentive and friendly staff including Jess who looked after us so well- not always easy to do when you consider we were a table of 10! Can’t praise Masala City highly enough! Thank you to the whole team there! 😊

Service was Impeccable as usual. Mo was so Attentive. Took care of everything for us. Food was Excellent, we took half of it home and it will feed us for the next few days

Another great meal here tonight with excellent service from Jess. Best indian in Chichester - and the UK - check out the awards this place has won, including Best Indian in the UK. Have an excellent deal on a Wesdnesday with a full meal for just £21pp. Really like the fact too that the staff always praise the owners and say what good people they are to work for.

The best gala buffet we have ever had - we keep returning as the choice, quality and presentation is first class The luxurious, funky decor is welcoming and is warm; unlike many restaurants these days Service is always first class and good banter with all...

We were looked after by Mo who was excellent and always on hand. The food was consistently brilliant despite being busy nothing was too much from the team.

Great food, great atmosphere and lovely service from our waitor Mo. Wednesday banquet menu is a must try. Really couldnt rate it more!

The most delicious meal with the friendliest staff especially Jess who was our wonderful waitress, the kindest waitress ever.

A truly exceptional experience from the moment we walked in and the warm greeting we received to meeting the owner and having a beautiful meal. A big thank you for making this a wonderful evening for both my daughter and I. A must visit!!

Excellent food and service as usual if I could give more than 5 stars I would. Staff are superb and the decor just beautiful

As always the service was impeccable! The food is so incredible and always fresh. They care for you like you are a personal friend every time we come. So kind with our kids and amazing value for money!

Excellent meal with my family and we were well looked after by Murad and Jess. Will definitely cover back again. The Sunday menu is great value.

Fantastic food. Cannot recommend enough if looking for an Indian in the area. Here for one night and the food was excellent

Served by Mo, cared for absolutely brilliantly all evening. Great to be back and enjoy such insane food, presented very well.

We came with our grandchildren and Ali was our waiter, he was absolutely amazing as was the food. Would highly recommend

Excellent all the way. Exceptional food and service. Waiter was very attentive. Deco of the restaurant very modern. Very busy restaurant. I recommend to all my families and friends.

The food was absolutely good! And one of the crew, Mohammad was so accomodating and excellent on his job! Overall, the experience was superb!

Best Indian I have ever been too, the food is top notch, the service is amazing and no matter how busy it's always the same.

Just went in for a nice curry. The restaurant was full but they greeted me and found me a table. I was really well looked after and had a great meal with 1st class service and attentive staff. Mo was really engaging and together with...

Had the pathia and thought it was awesome. The table service was great too. Mo was a great waiter. Would definitely recommend. Thanks

Everything about our experience was fantastic. The food, service and ambience were all first class. Special thanks to Jess, for helping with menu choices and the chief chef Raj and his team for a genuinely awesome taste of India. We will return!

Delicious! Very good food. It is a little pricey though. The staff are good. Always busy so booking is essential. Very nice

The food was excellent. The staff polite, professional and efficient. During the evening my wife mislaid her phone which was returned to her the next morning. She was much relieved. We will definitely return.

Appetising menu , delicious dishes that are beautifully presented, attentive staff and excellent customer service - in particular, Jess and Ali, who were great. All in all, an excellent dining experience and I can recommend Masala City unreservedly.

Have been twice. The food was great both times. However, while I understand there will be a mark up for sitting in as opposed to take away, why is a the same meal for two people £20 cheaper on the advertised online menu than in...

It became apparent quite quickly how busy the restaurant was (Friday night). The ambience was good and it was evident that everyone seemed to be having a good time. As a party of five including young children we were greeted promptly and soon ushered to...

This is by far the best curry house in the area. The food is excellent the staff are great and continually come over to see if there is anything else your wanting and to make sure everything is ok. I cannot recommend this place enough....

Excellent service by Jangir. Didn't expect the great quality of food, especially coming from up north. Highly recommended place to eat, great decor and atmosphere. All food halal. Will definitely be going again. Thabk you Jangir for being so brilliant!

We had an amazing meal this evening, food was outstanding! Kian looked after us extremely well and was friendly and very attentive. Five star would totally recommend 👍

Wonderful atmosphere, delicious food and amazing staff! Our server Jess was friendly, informative and attentive, ensuring we had everything we wanted for our meal. The food was delicious and the service was fast, absolutely would recommend to anyone (even those who don’t like spicy food...

Popped in when passing by on a Friday evening in the off chance of getting a table. The place was rammed but the waiter went off and did find a table👍 The menu was very very good, with quite a few dishes I'd never seen before. The two superlative waiters, Jess and Mo went through the menu with us and allowed us to alter the heat of the dishes. The meals were exceptional, I can see why this establishment has won awards. I am very very tempted to go back again tonight

Went here tonight with my family and again they did not disappoint!! Amazing service, the staff are always lovely specially Jay! The food!! 👌🏼 spot on my madras was lovely and spicy! The whole family enjoyed. Love Jade x

As per usual, incredible meal. So much food at the best quality. Jess deserves an individual recognition- superb service, great personality and so welcoming! As always- thank you for such a great meal!!

I went for dinner Wednesday night with my sister and we had a great time, the food was excellent and delicious, the staff were all very attentive and friendly, especially Jess who looked after us.

Jess is a great asset to your team and made out evening. Curry was amazing. Spot on service. Bottles of beer needs to be cooler.

Nice bhaji and tempura prawn starters…Cobra beer always a winner…. Sauces on mains good…. the chicken tikka and chicken korma a let down… any chance of using actual chicken breast next time, and not some sort of pressed composite? 🙏

The Masala is a clean colourful exciting restaurant. The staff are brilliant and food is the best curry we have ever had. The menu explains exactly what you are eating. We had the Wednesday banquet great meal,and plentiful.

Delicious food , great service, freshly cooked and authentic flavours in a nice atmosphere The chef really knows how to produce excellent Indian food - I loved the authentic touches - fresh curry leaves, coriander etc Smooth service and good wine

First we had a wonderful welcome. Water onthe table without having to ask for it and hot towels. There were eight of us and the staff were very patient and helpful as we made up our minds. A variety of dishes were chosen and all...

Have ordered takeaway before from this restaurant and there was a long wait. We should have learnt our lesson but gave them another go. This time the food was 2 hours late and it has completely put us off using them in future. The food...

Lunchtime Saturday meal with 14 adults and children,birthday celebration. Delicious meal,generous portions,friendly staff,quick service,good value.highly recommended!

I celebrated my birthday here and was blown away by the service, attention to detail and friendliness of the staff. Dishes were adapted when asked, as well as recommendations made for meals not on the menu. Staff were concerned when food was left (it was...

I haven't been in this restaurant in 6 years as I don't live in the area. I was greeted like an old friend and owner still remembered me, what a surprise! I ordered 2 chicken dansak, 2 chicken biriyani and peshwari naan. All was 10/10....

An excellent experience on a Wednesday night --Special Banquet . The whole team were friendly and professional. The menu choices were wide and the food cooked to a very high standard. I would thoroughly recommend Masala City for a pre-theatre meal!!! Great value for money....

Went Tuesday evening asked for a quiet table for 2 which we were given. Fabulous food beautifully served excellent flavours lovely staff nothing too much trouble. We had a great time and will be back when in the area.

We recently ate at this restaurant and were very impressed. The staff are friendly, welcoming and on hand to help with any questions about menu choices. Excellent menu choices, it is probably the best curry we have eaten. Service was prompt and the staff are...

We went as a family of eight and were virtually finished within 70 odd minutes. So what should have been a leisurely meal almost became a fast food experience. I’m not suggesting the service was bad, more a case of the food turning up 5...

A lot to spend to not be able to hear each other or talk. Food ok but staff have no awareness of seating which left us unable to talk each other. A couple sat next to a table of 4 men and a table of...

By a big margin the most enjoyable South Asian meal we have had. Unusual and enjoyable flavours, friendly and attentive service. Quite special - thank you

I moved to the area 12 months ago. 3 curry deliveries in we moved to another Curry supplier. The salt content is way too high! This restaurant is award winning. I'm not convinced! I need 2 pints of water after a meal. I don't know...

Visited due to the good reviews on here, it was well worth it, the food was outstanding. I’ve long held the belief that my local Indian is the best, but not any more, the food here is just something else. Loved it.

Delicious food, Friendly service and efficient. Friend and I shared two dishes, one bread one rice and samosa. Delicious and enjoyed it. A little more expensive than I had expected.

It’s truly wonderful! The best service I have experienced in a long time. The staff are so attentive, the food is absolutely outstanding! Thank you so much for a wonderful evening! Very much appreciated x

Very friendly and attentive staff provided terrific customer service; the menu was varied and the food delicious; and the atmosphere of the restaurant made for a great place to eat all round!

Ordered online for a takeaway, at 2 o’clock for delivery at 7 o’clock After 2 phone calls it turned up 50 minuets late Cold and swimming in oil, promised it wouldn’t be cold on the phone but it was had to microwave, Might as well...

Fab food, presented and served by very attentive staff, great atmosphere! Highly recommended by locals, never been disappointed!

Excellent as always. I’ve been going here for years! I won’t eat an any other Indian restaurant in West Sussex.

Not tried this restaurant before, went tonight and oh my, the food was incredible! Thanks for the extra dips and and poppadoms. Highly recommend

Had a takeaway for 7, food all good and thoroughly enjoyed. Only snag was that they had forgotten to include one of the mains in the bags but they willingly sent a replacement round. Sometimes things go wrong, that's life, but judge an organisation by...

This meal for 2 was a takeaway order that was 20mins late in delivery. The quality of both dishes was poor with a bland base sauce probably common to each dish just supplemented with extra naga chilli and alternative lamb in mine. There was no...

Went for a late night dinner with my dad and it was just fantastic. Our waitress (we didn’t get her name but she was quite young) was fabulous, friendly and attentive. Couldn’t fault any of the staff. Food was delicious and our only problem is...

Great service and food, got a big birthday surprise including a free freshly baked cake with complimentary drinks, highly recommend for those who are willing to try new and unique foods

We booked a table for 4 at 8.30....turned up to a packed restaurant and no table for us. Told to come back...finally got a table 1.5 hrs later. Food was delicious but heavily over priced. Be aware that there is a 12.5% service charge added...

Take out- really very, very good. Lots of taste in all five main dishes we ordered. Delivery was to our campsite! Arrived ahead of time, all well packed and the right temperature to eat. We're from Birmingham ('home' of Indian Balti) and this was as...

Lovely meal out with the family. We ordered from the set menu and we all loved it. Tasty and lots of it. We were served by Jess who was great and took time to answer all our questions about the menu.

Having visited many times previously , wobbly table not withstanding, it was a disappointment to have a meal the was not up to the standard of times past. When asked by the waitress how the meal was, she ignored my comments that the meat was...

We had a takeaway from masala city and it was amazing. The starter was lovely and the main meals and sides were amazing so fresh and lovely flavour. The chicken was moist and good quality. My daughter who is not a curry lover thought it...

Such a lovely Restaurant, very quick with service but didn’t feel rushed, good pricing and lovely food.

We went for dinner here last night, 3 of us had visited before and it was so good we had wanted to go back the next time we were in Chichester. All the food was just as amazing as last time! Starters: mixed starter was...

Not only was this the best Indian meal we ever had, it was brilliant in every way: the staff, the atmosphere, the decor. In particular, the staff went out of their way to make sure our young grandson had a lovely meal and experience. Top...

We hadnt booked, post cinema hunger kicked in and we fancied a curry - no problem on a Frday night just after pay day! Tried our luck, stepped thru the door - rammed busy (great atmos!) and immediately turned on our heels to exit......head of...

Amazing food great service and the staff managed to keep calm under pressure. There were about 25 of us all paying separately! They did an incredible job and everyone i spoke to enjoyed the food immensely. Thanks Masala city for a great evening. Will come...

Average curry, friendly but very slow service. Bit of a rip off really. For example £7 for 3 poppadoms and a few chutneys. Ended up paying £35 a head for a bog standard curry, no starters, no desserts. £3 for a small Diet Coke, really?...

Tonight I tried to go to Masala City but as we ordered some popadoms I let the waiter know I had a nut allergy - the manager then came to our table and said he could not serve me. I was stunned, it was embarrassing...

Staying locally and asked for delivery @ 19.00 - there were bang on time and the meal was at the desired temperature. Our order for two people..... Onion Bhaji starter with mint sauce, Chicken Korma, Chicken Tikka Passanda, Pershwari Naan, Pilau Rice and chips. Freebie...

Expensive and rather disappointing- went on the recommendation of a friend and tried the tikka cocktail and the lamb was frankly inedible.
